Beat Anxiety Now World Summit - I'm in, are you?

It’s no secret that mental health is one of the most important social issues of our time.

With up to 25% of people being affected by anxiety or depression, the chances are high that you know someone who is suffering, either directly or indirectly, from one of these conditions.

To make matters worse, many of those who suffer do so silently. Social stigma, personal shame or
feelings of loneliness can cause people to live a silent pain as they look for solutions to their problems.

Low mood, panic attacks, depression, OCD, PTSD, Social Phobia, stress and anxiety can have
devastating effects on the mind and body. In a high pressure world, anxiety and its effects are ever-
present.

Unfortunately, despite the enormity of the problem, anxiety is still poorly understood by the general public, and even some sections of the therapeutic community. This Summit is an opportunity to connect with reliable expert advice for both sufferers and therapists alike. As a presenter, I am part of a Faculty that includes some the the world’s leading experts in the field, and hopefully we can educate and inspire those who need it most.

The Summit is composed of diverse professionals who will offer proven insights and strategies to help people tackle anxiety and depression. Instead of being sold a catch-all solution, Summit members will have access to a pool of information gathered through decades of research, professional practice and personal experience.

Because of this, one could expect that Summit attendees will leave with some tools and techniques
in hand to help them devise an approach with the advice of their personal health care team that is
tailored to their particular situation and circumstances.

Moreover, this information is being made available to everyone from the comfort and privacy of
their own home. Not everyone is ready to speak openly about their personal situation which is why
this Summit is designed to allow people to participate anonymously; they can even ask the experts
question, in real time, without revealing any personal information.

Not only will Summit members have live access to the talks, they can also continue to review the
recorded sessions for three months afterwards, meaning that whatever nugget of wisdom they need will be there to be gleaned, even if it is missed the first time around.

I am scheduled to speak on June 21st and look forward to hearing your feedback.
